With immediate effect, drivers will not be allowed to
exit their cars whilst the race circuit is live i.e. under “green” racing
conditions. This includes both drivers on the race track whose car has become
immobilised and those who retire to the infield who must also remain in their
cars with both their safety harness and helmet on. The only exception to this is
where a car needs to be vacated in emergency
conditions – i.e. fire etc. If a driver is in a car and feels there is a problem
which officials may not be aware of which potentially makes staying there
unsafe, they should indicate this to an official with the “thumbs down” signal
who will then ask race control to suspend the race. It should be noted that in
all cases, the primary cause(s) of the suspension/stoppage, shall be excluded
for any re-run or re-start.

If a waved yellow caution or red flag race stoppage is
instigated, drivers who are already on the centre must remain strapped in and
with helmets on. Drivers who are in immobilised cars on other parts of the
circuit may exit their cars whilst the race is suspended but must go into a
designated area which is considered by the promotion to be the safest place to
be whilst the race is live, which may well be off the track completely.

Drivers will be informed of where this area is by means
of a driver briefing or driver handout. Drivers who are still unsure of where
this area is should ensure they find out where it is before racing by
contacting the Clerk of the Course or another senior official.

Please note that the above covers all formulas and
race tracks within the ORC.
